ok ppl listen up. Dont drink and drive. unfortuantly yesterday..i found out the hard way. i was drinkin and drivin and i flipped my car. i hadnt even had my car back from the shop a week. i jus did a bp swap and now my car is totalled. thankfully no one was hurt. jus a few scratches. as far as the car..this is yet another r.i.p. moment for an mx-3. as far as the car goes, its sittin at a wrecker right now, still in my posession. if anyone in the local area needs parts, msg me back a.s.a.p. otherwise its stayin at the junker and prob crushed. im not sure how long i can keep it there so get back to me.

Drinking and driving never mix....... and thankfully, you are still alive, and no one was hurt.

Reminds me of a friend I had. He was a a heavy drug and acohol user for years, driving drunk and all. However he did get help and overcame his addictions, and was clean for almost a year. But one night, he was at a stop light.... a car in the opposite direction going at a high speed, jumped into my friends lane, and smashed into him head on... my friend is no longer with us.... and the driver of the car going full speed was driving drunk.

My friend had just got married and had his first child......

Guys and gals, never ever drive drunk! It just is not worth it.
If you fall, then get back up........Luck favors the prepared

It's easy for anyone to think you're a moron but I think it'd be easy for anyone to make the same mistake if they went with the thinking that "it'll be ok etc". Good thing you're not hurt and no one else is. Even though you probably just lost thousands of dollars, it's a small price to pay considering you are not injured badly, that's how I'd think of this. You live and you learn, well done for admitting your faults.
